Underground Utility Contractor in Ocala, FL

Farms, estates and long service runs

Properties with a lot of land, such as farms, estates and large rural homesites, often need long underground runs: a water line from the road to a house and on to barns or outbuildings, conduit for power to a pump or a gate, a sewer or drainage line from a building to a connection point. Long runs ask different questions from short ones.

• Route. The line should avoid trees, structures, fences and paddocks where possible, and keep the number of crossings low.
• Crossings. Drives, fence lines and drainage features can be opened and restored, or crossed by directional drilling between two small pits.
• Depth and protection. The line needs the cover its owner and the utility specify, especially where vehicles or livestock cross it.
• Records. Private lines installed over time are rarely on any map, and the one-call process does not mark them; the owner's knowledge matters.

In town, the work is more familiar: water services, sewer laterals, storm connections and conduit on residential and commercial lots, reached with as little disturbance as the site allows.

We work for landowners, homeowners, businesses, developers and public owners.
